i wish ARMVK team after completing there current ROM there next venture should be gingerbread on G3, through its alot to ask but would be nice to have it

I think 2.3 will be available for G3 but it would take a long time.

I agree! The version 4.0 RC2 is Awesome and the theme is like Gingerbread.

Well, it's not a problem of specs of the G3, since 2.3 is available for the HTC tatoo that is weaker than our G3. this friend of mine has one and he said that 2.3 is the fastest rom that he had.
It's just a matter that someone make a port of 2.3, you can forget samsung of course.

Hope mad team can port it

Samsung Galaxy S Gingerbread Rollout halted

http://phandroid.com/2011/04/19/samsung-galaxy-s-gingerbread-rollout-halted-here-we-go-again/

well.. ill be staying out of the i9000 general section for a while lol.
inb4 samsung hatefest.

The samsung site has the GB posted on it and you can download from there. So, not sure why you would want the Vodaphone version....but then... that's just me

Would be awesome if google pulled a quick one, modified the international version, and released it for us U.S. users. To bad they cant do that unless they have the samsung drivers.

Theirs already to ports of 2.3.3 from official jvk

From the recent i9000 release, or just builds that people build with their best ability?

From the recent leak. Team edt has one on their site made a couple days ago
Sent from my GT-I9000 using XDA Premium App

Its good edt is working on gingerbread but last time I tried it, the rom was no where near polished. Can a determined nerd convince himself that all the random rainbow flash, and broken video and 3D support is worth it just to have the lastest? Of course, I did just that. But truth to be told, its not a dd yet. Bi Winning on the other hand is what a polished rom should feel like, and I know its an edt release.

Can you post a link please

just use bi-winningv2

Still no signs of Android 2.3 for our beloved "Vibrant"?

Oh come on Samsung, its big time we get to taste the Android Gingerbread OS for our Galaxy S Vibrant. I have a Galaxy S I9000 and I got Gingerbread update in the month of Apr-May. But Samsung has not even released Android 2.2.1 for Vibrant. Did they forget this model?
Edit: No doubt I love the amazing Cyanogenmod 7 on my Vibrant but I'd love to see the 2.3 update from Samsung (some TouchWiz love LOL).

basically they abandoned us after froyo lol

Mann get over its not coming if they promise ICS I'm good

Don't hold your breath on that one. I think the Vibrant is dead, at least in samsung's eyes. There have been multiple leaks for Galaxy S4G, another today for the Epic and i believe the others have also seen leaks, and and still nothing for the Vibrant.

What really pisses me off, is samsung email is MUCH better than stock.

T-Mobile doesn't want to cut into upgrades. Since the Vibrant 4G is out and is the current model, the original Vibrant is deprecated. It is pretty obvious, as no other carrier has been denied a Gingerbread version for the Galaxy S except for T-Mobile.

Although GB would have been nice, I am not missing anything on 2.2.1. What about you guys? Any killer apps or features that makes GB more desirable? Don't tell Crt animation and over scroll glow

Its the little thing like a faster, smother scrolling and improved gps no needs to use lag fix etc that make it worth upgrading. And ofc we all love to upgrade that why we are on XDA .

The 4G isn't much of an upgrade for current Vibrant owners imo. I don't see why we couldn't get the software it's not like it would give us a FFC or 4g(maybe). I guess for those of us smart enough to root and flash that we survive with better roms anyway. We probably should have seen this coming. I mean the only way possible to get froyo was to update via kies which hopefully won't brick your phone.

Flash miui or cm7
probably better than stock gb anyway
Vibrant+MIUI

Why complain about what you dont have when what we do you have available to us great.( no not perfect but still great)

Way ahead of you buddy.

The only thing is that the developers need the GB source to make it more stable :/

It doesn't matter if you use official roms or not.
without the source, battery is ****.

Conspiracy nut time lol. Maybe it's a way for samsung to keep the devs here from making a perfectly stable rom so we would have to upgrade later . End Conspiracy.

Yes, Samsung has told this before, not really a "news"...
But hey, thanks to CM we will get in touch with ICS soon (or now if you want to use an alpha version), so there is no reason to worry about samsungs decision

That's complete bull from Samsung. They're own problem that they put touchwiz on the phone, and the default interface of ICS is much better. Poor, poor excuse.
Yes we have less ram, but why is it working 98% perfect on my phone already?

MOD Edit: Watch the language

At least they admitted that samsung developers are lousy and cannot optimize crappy TW for hardware will less RAM. So pathetic!

Still would go for a Samsung hardware phone, they're really good. Just a shame they won't be updating their older phones - which they are under no commitment to actually update.

i would like to just point out that not upgrading the SGS line of devices to ICS because of TW or some crap like that is not the right way to go Samsung. You have pooor coders we know that but leaving out the flagship phone (sold over 15Million, LOT OF MONEY) is just plain BS. if you are not gonna upgrade it then GIVE US THE PROPRIETARY DRIVERS for RIL and CAMERA and our devs will do it themselves!!! Mind you that after this fiasco i am not buying (and also whoever i know) another samsung product again. Dont tell me you dont recognize the force of xda members as a community.

I doubt the next one will be Samsung the first two were HTC ( the g1 was kind of a nexus) so they'll probably go with another manufacturer as they try and keep it fair
Sent from my GT-I9000 using xda premium

And some ppl called me crazy when I said it's most unlikely we will get anything official.

To hell with Samsung, the i9000 has been a disaster from the day it was released. If it wasn't for custom roms it would be in the trash already.

Amen to that

If at least Failsung will release the source so the devs can keep making more stuff for our beloved phone!

Isn't there anyone powerful enough here on XDA to bring this to the attention of Samsung? We have a powerful community here and the Galaxy S was a flagship device!
Listen, Samsung; we don't care about Touchwiz. Just give us vanilla ICS! That's all we want!!!!! Our phone can EASILY handle it!!!!

They admitted TW is memory hog and is simply slowing down our phones. Get rid of that quick.

After not getting gingerbread on the vibrant (the only galaxy s1 variant that didn't), it wouldn't surprise me if they didn't update this variant of the gs2 beyond ICS just to keep the streak alive of not fully supporting updates for Samsung phones on T-Mobile.
Exhibit A: behold 2
Exhibit B: galaxy s vibrant

Not to mention the sales they make on people upgrading for new software alone.
Whether we see it officially or not, we will see a stable version for our phones from the devs here.

Wow, this is my first samsung phone so I didn't know such sad history existed. Well, whatever will be, I hope cm10 will be stable by then. I'm not a big fan of TouchWiz myself. My next phone will be a Google device phone. OS support is more important to me than specs

Amen Bro ! Thats why I love this site so much. It doesn't really matter what T-Mobile does so its kind of a pointless conversation. I would't really even take the KIES update or OTA update from T-Mobile anyways. I will wait untill someone here gets a good stable JB Release. I am reluctant to change because my ICS rom is so smooth and stable but I know within a few months it will be worth it. It's like a slap in the face to the slow and bloated T-Mo. Rom.

I wouldn't do a kies update either. My hope is for Samsung to release source so that the devs here have more to work with. That was what dogged the vibrant. They eventually released Froyo for it, but nothing further. The GB/ICS/JB releases for it were all ported from either the i9000 or the Nexus S, and had to be tweaked since there was no actual source to work with for the vibrant itself. That's why the GPS was so spotty on it on any version of android after Froyo. I'm glad that my insurance replacement for my busted Vibrant was the Hercules, which is still in the window of time (was it 18 months?) that they pledged to support upgrades to android. Whether we actually see it is another story. At least the devs here really kick some butt on the ROMs they release.

Just got JB on my tf300 2 days ago
Asus updates waaaay quicker than Samsung! Maybe later on I could get an Asus Phone.
